Vast swaths of the internet have extinguished over time. The last bastion holding the glue together of the old internet remains largely in the internet archive and Space Jam’s website from 1996. Most of what is left is the fascist commercial conglomerates capitalizing on the remains.

The point is that not only are these companies turning public work into products, they’re also choking the last bit of life left out of the old internet, and driving up the price so that no one can ever make their own thing on the internet.
